    Revelation | The Church's Bi-Millennial Performance Review [Kevin Neuner]

    Seven cities. Seven churches. Why? A clue is found in the preface, that John, a brother to the people to whom he writes, shares, in Jesus, in the persecution, the kingdom, and resistance. This triad formulates the foundational agenda for John's exhortations and prepares these disciples for the encouraging hope that is coming.

    Revelation | Let's Talk Rome [Danielle Parish]

    Do you find yourself thinking about the Roman Empire lately? The people of the first century did too! Far removed from the Land of Israel, Jesus followers sought to live faithfully while surrounded by the powers and principalities of their day. A close look at the cultural and imperial context of the book of Revelation reveals that their time resonates with the world we are living in today.

    The Lord Hears [Danielle Parish]

    The world feels heavy these days. Amidst the joys of new births and hopes fulfilled, we also hold loss, disappointment, fear, grief and anger. We are exhausted and brokenhearted. We are numb and overwhelmed. We are shocked and not surprised at humanity's inclination to do evil or rejoice over violence and loss of life ... and so we cry out, "How long, O Lord?" In times like these, we need holy spaces and holy moments of lament and hope, where we can join the psalmist's cries for justice and remember the stories of the prophets who came before us. We need to hear the words of Jesus who calls us to love our enemies, again and again, even as the tyrants rage. A time of worship, lament, prayer, community, and hope help us remember that the Lord is not far off, nor silent, but is listening. The Lord hears. We are not alone.

    Epiphany | Gifts Fit for a King [Danielle Parish]

    According to the Gospel of Matthew, Magi arrive in Jerusalem looking to worship the one born King of the Jews. Following prophecy, they continue on to Bethlehem, the city of David, and following the star, they find Jesus, with Mary and Joseph. Overjoyed, they worship him and present him with gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. For nearly two millennia, Christians have commemorated the visit of the magi with the feast day of Epiphany Sunday, also known as Three Kings' Day.
